Summary: Will our agility stay when COVID is gone? Many public leaders and private ones insist that new-found flexibility and the tools that enable it will last after the pandemic has finally receded, whenever it does. They say that urgency and creativity will be the hallmark of a new era. That may be true. But one can easily imagine out of exhaustion or fear, a return to old patterns that favor the status quo.
Mitchell Weiss, Harvard Business School Professor and author of the book We the Possibility: Harnessing Public Entrepreneurship to Solve Our Most Urgent Problems, will describe a kind of leadership, “possibility leadership”, taken up by many leaders during the pandemic and how it might be continued afterward and directed toward solving major challenges. He will talk about how to tip the balance in government organizations and other large bureaucracies from “probability” mindsets - where the focus is on deploying solutions that have “worked” before, even with just mediocre results – toward “possibility” mindsets and cultures instead. In possibility-led organizations, there exists the appetite and skillset to try new solutions, even amidst the recognition that these innovations, by virtue of their novelty, may only possibly work and probably won’t. Drawing on case studies from around the world, he will also talk about how to stop short of racing past possibility toward something more dangerous instead.
